  • The 2023 Toyota Venza was much more capable than we expected in this class of vehicle. It definitely would have been a good candidate for the steep hill climb, but the entrance is too steep for the approach and departure angles on the Venza.

    Thanks for taking your Venza off road because I’m definitely not taking my Brand New Toyota Venza off Road 😄😂🤣!

    I was pleasantly surprised by that outcome, the Venza clawed right up.
    Usually there is a delay with some crossover’s traction control systems, which results in roll back, but not here.

    I really like eCVTs. They are smooth yet so tough. They essentially don’t have any internal wear components so they really can last forever, even under extreme conditions.

      Thanks for sharing, and as far as CVTs go the eCVTs are probably my favorite as well.

      @@Thissandthathow is a Toyota eCVT not tough? It’s not really a CVT, if you are thinking of a belt and cones. Really bad naming.

    Very impressive. That testing is beyond what the vehicle is designed and intended for.

      Thanks for watching! For sure it is, but it does help show how the AWD system actually works, which can be useful for show covered roads

    I've seen some video of an RX 350 getting stuck in the snow really badly I'm really surprised that anyone would make a car so expensive that is a sport utility vehicle... And can't handle itself in the snow...
    Good for Toyota on doing better.

      I don't believe it has any mechanical limited slip, but it may use brake based limited slip, because you're right, it did perform well.
